Udall, Bennet sign on to Obamacare extension idea

Colorado’s senators, Michael Bennet and Mark Udall, both Democrats, signed on to a request by Sen. Jeanne Shaneen, D-N.H., seeking a six-week extension of the deadline for individuals to sign up for the individual mandate to have health insurance.

Shaheen, who, like Udall, is up for election in 2014, wrote to the president seeking the extension, citing technical problems surrounding the rollout of the health-care requirement on Oct. 1.
